looters beliefs do not seem to be talking to any muslim terrorist group or u.s. officials or field officer investigators interrogated the surviving suspect. in hospital seize an associate has details from boston. official complaints in the presence of a judge and a lawyer have been filed against nineteen year old boston bombing suspect just hearts or nine of this took place at his hospital bed here in boston where he has been kept under strict guard ever since his arrest friday evening we do know of course that he suffered several serious injuries and was unable to speak for this entire time sunday evening he finally awoke and was able to answer several questions and writing and finally today he was conscious and able to react to the charges being brought against him at his hospital bed these charges of course include the use of weapons of mass destruction as well as the malicious destruction of property resulting in death now the penalty that's her knife is now dead facing

as a death penalty or any term of years behind bars including life he's also facing a fine of up to two hundred fifty thousand dollars throughout this brief encounter with the judge we do know that mostly was. nodding and offer mation of hearing what he was being told he only spoke once when asked whether or not he's able to afford a lawyer and he said no so legal counsel is going to be presented to him well that despite being of chechen origin the alleged bomber spent almost half their lives in america for their parents applied for asylum both were rare visitors to russia where the students are from warning the f.b.i. over the possible terrorist intentions of the eldest brother two years ago questions on al being raised by the f.b.i. failed to take proper action and he's gone a chicken picks up the story. as the dust settles in the wake of boston bombings

the question many ask is why and how could u.s. federal authorities fail to act on the valuable intelligence from two years ago stating that the middle of was radicalized dangerous and quote prepared to join unspecified underground groups that's the information the f.b.i. says they received from the russian government so two years ago the f.b.i. interviewed the guy and reported back to the russians that they found nothing suspicious since then they've apparently failed to monitor the middleman because if they have they probably discovered his you tube page under his own name by the way full of radical content with a playlist titled terrorists so you have intelligence from a foreign government you have the individual openly sharing radical content and yet somehow he's off the radar the fear is the reason the f.b.i. dropped the ball on the alleged russian intelligence is that they treated it as soley russia's problem they may have taken the marlins chechen background into consideration and they may have ended up looking at this individual from a more political rather than purely law enforcement point of view this is possible

given the history of all the requests and pleas that russia has made in the past with regards to a number of individuals from north caucasus accused of heinous crimes particularly those of chechen background one example ileus ahmad of who was known as the right hand of the internationally recognized chechen terrorists. just a quick reminder of who was he was killed in two thousand and six. record as a chechen militant leader included in one thousand nine hundred ninety five he and his gang attacked the city of good yarn of took up to one thousand eight hundred residents of that city hostage in a hospital including one hundred fifty children at least one hundred forty people died as a result of that attack also as he gained power in the region stated his objective to have all muslim regions in russia break away from the country it was basically a call to start a war on all fronts among his other heinous acts to. was the school hostage crisis in this line in two thousand and four terror that russia will never forget it left

so we hundred and thirty four people dead one hundred eighty six of them children so the right hand of this monster who helped stage all this whore. modify arrives in the u.s. somewhere around the year two thousand settles down in boston by the way and receives political asylum despite russia's pleas to treat him as a clerk criminal at the beginning us federal authorities appealed the boston course decision on granting him asylum then they withdrew their opposition after a number of political heavyweights in the us tuned in to support the chechen militants including former sector of state albright so when questioning us federal authorities reaction to the alleged russian intel on the middle of it is important to keep in mind the mindset perpetuated in the u.s. for many years in favor of the militants in russia and against the russian government's actions to stop them in new york city's former mayor rudy giuliani spoke to the confusion that many americans had as they learned about the background of these hard i have brothers the chechen revolution against russia is an islamic

based revolution they want to islamic state in russia. not inherently anti-american right anti russian. american i mean and in fact here's the odd part of this if anything we've been i'm not going to say sympathetic with them but we've certainly been critical of and how far he's gone in dealing with. so if anything they should they shouldn't have this anger at the united states so given all this maybe maybe this political mindset has prompted authorities in the u.s. to drop the ball on valuable law enforcement intelligence on top of. one of the caucuses dissent of the suspects or did prompt the u.s. to the media that is to shift focus to arm groups in chechnya around us double assure russian connection to the case earlier i spoke to matt clements the regional manager of the. the i.h.s.

information company he's an expert on european a former soviet countries he says the alleged boston bombers most likely to have been radicalized outside of russia the chechen nationality or ethnicity of the two prime suspects is actually somewhat misleading for instance they have not actually lived in russia for the last ten years that actual time they spent in the north caucasus appears to be relatively small and there's some disagreement about that and i actually think the most likely outcome is that these guys are probably going to be self radicalized rather than having direct links to militants in the north caucasus there are no number of reasons in which people become radicalized the details surrounding time alone in his younger brother are somewhat sketchy at the moment so to go into too much detail would be to speculate too far however that does seem to be some signs around the older brother timeline in particular to suggest that he was struggling to adapt to life in the united states which is a sign of previous people who become radicalized in this sort of

a way indeed this kind of disengagement with society can often lead people to look for alternative sources and indeed radical islam can be one of those kind of factors which people can turn to as as a means to sort of direct their lives. and as always hereabouts he we are interested in what you think of the story we're covering particularly this one that dot com are asking for your view on how the boston bombing investigation will unfold you can log onto our website to vote online right now. fi is a for the lives of more than half of the hunger striking guantanamo bay prison is finally being shared by u.s. authorities at the military is sending additional medical personnel to the com where a growing number of inmates are refusing food in protest of a mistreatment and indefinite detention dr stevens and the retired army medical corps officer and a former senior advisor to the defense to pop and he says it might not be long before the strike turns lethal typically people get very sick after about

fifty days in which they've not had any food but are taking water so they may be getting very sick and i think there's a fear that a number may die within the next several weeks but all the world medical associations are categorically and ethically against force feeding the reason being is that it in fact disrupts what is most important which is establishing a constructive relationship or poorer with the hunger strikers and being able to discuss the terms of their protest the this is a they if they have it also. really overrides their autonomy which is very important in medicine we except that is one of our ethical principles so that by and large most organizations across the world feel that it is not acceptable and in

this particular case what it does not help resolve their grievances and help resolve the conflict that we're having between the detainees in the authorities. this is r.t. and alleged violations of prisoner rights at one time i would just one aspect the us has been scolded for by china. take a detailed look at what else beijing has put in its report criticizing washington's human rights record at home. and of protest a raid by the heavy. iraqi police that leaves twenty six people dead as violence escalates in the deeply divided country. a public storm is gathering in britain with calls on the u.k. government to asylum to hundreds of afghan interpreters who worked with the country's forces during its military operation and they are being left behind as the army withdraws to face the wrath of the. enemy collaborators.

this report. it was a dangerous job that required courage many of these translators are washing on the frontline so they're working with soldiers and risking their lives in exactly the same way soldiers do but while british forces withdraw the afghan interpreters who made their work possible are being left to fend for themselves is it your job or. shadows. or you are all sent for those you have to be if i catch you then i would if you. can't prince in the helmand province he says he gets regular calls from the taliban some six hundred fifty interpreters just like rafi remain in afghanistan with no right to settle in the u.k. those times when you when you finish the job and you've done it very well there's a thank you at the end of that job in this case it's a death threat it's a risk to your life but seen by this how about this having collaborated with the

enemy and david the past year targeted killings of so-called international collaborators by the taliban have doubled r.t. got in touch with the foreign and commonwealth office who are responsible for the interpreter's asylum claims this is the response we've got people who have put their lives for mine for the united kingdom will not be abandoned the government has put processes in place to ensure the service given by former interpreters with a term forces is taken fully into account if individuals apply for asylum in the u k. the keyword here is individual for the moment it's a case by case basis according to the foreign office to make sure the personal circumstances are recognised case by case the sign of planes can take months even years there's no accountability every other nato country that directly employed entire protests has offered them some kind of special program visa program asylum

britain's the only country that hasn't is still dragging its feet on this we will be involved in events overseas in the future but all military clearly will need to have people helping them and who is going to help our military if they realise that they're not going to help themselves senior military and political figures urging the people who work here in the u.k. foreign office to rethink the policy and the campaign is gaining momentum over sixty thousand people have signed an online petition urging the british foreign secretary to offer a bulk resettlement program but while the politicians think it over in here the men that risked their lives to help british forces say that the waiting game is getting deadlier by the day we were helping the people but all they see is that we were with the aggression forces in afghanistan which also called the nato forces or ice or forces but to every other of the national. aggression forces and

once they leave the people who are in danger and will pay for some wrongdoings of the americans. have been interpreters and their families. london. and i'll be back with more news after a very short break including thought about north korea claiming a should be recognized as a nuclear armed state this is arts. world . science technology innovation all the list i'm elements from around russia we've dumped a few jerks covered. the

book about international airport in the very heart of moscow. from moscow this is r.t. thank you for joining us today at least twenty six people have been killed in iraq

as they gathered to vent their anger at the shia led government ahead of the publication of local election results. and off is in iraq for us. fire. tens of thousands of. anti-terrorism laws that have been.

viable. option. very much and. joined us from london by jim brown of the stop the will coalition here coming on the program good to see you today jim obviously there's been a fresh surge in violence in iraq over the past month or so we've seen a thousand people being killed in various bomb attacks. what is the security

situation now. it. rises and falls but the level of violence has never. gone back to what it was ten years ago after the war and talking about it's never return to that there's been terrible periods of around two thousand and six and against that things are much better than otherwise the level of violence is constant just peaks and troughs now with the latest spate of violence we're seeing a twenty six people killed here ultimately protesters rallying ahead of the results from local elections having a bit of a run in with the police as well why are people protesting the elections without even knowing the results yet. well this installation of what you could call a ministration in baghdad it. has clearly marginalize the.

large part of the sunni population it's not as simple as that because for example a shia leader. came out in support of the sunni protests a few weeks ago so it's not a straight it's not a straight divide in that sense nevertheless that the fundamental feature it's all clearly a consequence of the invasion ten years ago these things the the the level of sectarian violence for example has no history like that in in modern iraq. and it's a permanent feature of these situations forming the occupation the invasion. as you say many do blame the united states for iraq's current political instability and perhaps security and stability as well but now that you know america basically has come and gone it's still fair to blame the united states for the ongoing violence in iraq. yes i mean the. entire british foreign

office legal department twenty five strong ten years ago said that this would be a war of aggression and the ruling international law on the subject is the. everything that follows from such a war is the responsibility of the aggressor and. whatever the situation was like in iraq before two thousand and three the fact is that we have an unprecedented situation today and the single cause of that is the war and the occupation and these are these are the remnants of it there was no process there was no iraqi process which decided the future of iraq i think as you say jim i do say iraq is a deeply divided nation and clearly the local security forces are unable to cope. is there a solution for iraq or perhaps for the rest of the world just start turning a blind eye. well certainly the rest of the world should should stay

out. and certainly the what happened ten years ago is completely unacceptable and this is one of the lessons of it and certainly every every nation and certainly the iraqis need a period of stability. process where they themselves can work out their future and that's certainly a lesson then it goes it goes for the entire region. all current events point to the same the same solution for example if you look at libya you find that the libyans did not decide the future of libya it was a military intervention and what you have is extreme instability and so on and that's a parallel with iraq which of course happened just. two years ago all right jim brown from a stop the war coalition joining us live from london many thanks indeed for joining us here on r.t. today thank you. well a manhunt continues in western russia as police sweep several regions after

a gunman police a crime scene leaving six dead and then he disappears into thin air can find out more details at r.t. dot com. also online for you right now fukushima is crippled nuclear power plant will need more than three decades to decommission apparently the time is already running out for tokyo to complete the work you can see what are your parents should be bracing itself for the worst case scenario at r.t. dot com. but for now if human rights have become the latest battleground for china to challenge the united states in addition to trade economy and regional military supremacy beijing has slammed washington's approach to people's freedoms in its own report released on the heels of an american one the infringement of rights abroad increased electronic surveillance and a spike in gun violence or just some of the issues china has criticized america for . reports. after years of swallowing accusations of violating human

rights beijing is fighting back after last year the us published its scalding human rights practices report now china held a mirror back to washington and its role of international human rights judge. let's take a look at where the two clash the u.s. again accuse china of limiting internet freedoms the so-called great firewall of china where beijing has long being under scrutiny for blocking many western websites such as facebook google and you tube but those criticizing china are no saints sounding people and says the bills to control internet data have made waves across the atlantic lately and the u.s. government approved interception of private text messages and e-mails for security needs are hardly contributing to online freedom china's single party political system and lack of democratic elections also came under fire the chinese report made its wife back at america's multi-party system saying that in what seems to be a democratic process it's really not the people but the amount of money spent on

complaints which really decide the winner is the largest part of the us report was dedicated to human rights as they are today from harsh labor conditions to poor salaries indeed china's status of being the world's factory is nothing new and the cheap labor force concept has long been debated beijing hit back with a scathing claim that in the country where racism and discrimination officially do not exist after american and hispanic employees earn forty percent less than the white population in the united states and that's through the glass ceiling for women who earn a twenty percent smaller salary than men the u.s. report also lashed out at the treatment of prisoners and members of opposition in china contrast that with a country which runs notorious guantanamo prison and the allegations of multiple human rights abuses within its walls with china highlighting full statistics on all deaths in u.s. prisons and the use of brutal force against peaceful demonstrators in twenty twelve it is no secret that china has a checkered human rights record but by countering the claims of those who it

believes should get its own house in order it is quite clear that beijing no longer wants to see a monopoly in the market of examining human rights. alexia shift the reporting that north korea is making its own response to the u.s. human rights report promising to bolster its nuclear program the country is now reportedly seeking international recognition as a nuclear state the us has laid out disarmament as the main condition of the talks pyongyang's official newspaper says if indeed negotiations happen it will be between equal nuclear nations james cole but the editor of japan based news website says north korea is trying to highlight the western hypocrisy on the issue the question is whether or not that anyone has the right to say whether or not they are allowed to be a part of this exclusive club i think what we have to understand right now is that north korea is calling out these other nations on the nuclear hypocrisy that's been hardwired into international relations for

a long time now and if you look at the actual statement that was made they said for example our position is clear never dream of denuclearization on the korean print peninsula before denuclearization of the world is realized this really has to be seen as a poke in the eye at the community that assembled in seoul last year at the nuclear security summit in two thousand and twelve to talk about denuclearization of the world but of course that was directed specifically at countries like north korea and iran which weren't invited to the summit so i think this has to be seen as calling those nations out on the hypocrisy. but i still have for you here what we take a close look at over a badly it's part of the united states living by its own rules explore texas with us in just a moment. the

movie world war z z being for zombie which stars brad pitt as one hundred seventy five million dollar budget has been recalled by paramount executives not because this is probably yet another stupid violent zombie movie but because the chinese might get offended according to the wrap dot com china was supposed to take the blame for starting the evil zombie apocalypse this time but china becoming the largest foreign market for american movies made artistic integrity fly out the window to protect the bottom dollar as is tradition and hollywood this is not the first time that there has been pro-choice censorship in hollywood the remake of red dawn which was originally a cold war era a minstrel show against russians was supposed to show a chinese invasion of america this time however they have changed it to north koreans who can't even defeat the us military in south korea let alone at an away game in the usa the thing that is interesting is not the censorship is the fact

that they will censor movies for whoever's got a lot of cash coaches the big markets won't be offended but countries with small markets will this is a complete prostitute mentality show that love to any guy who's got bills in his palm you know i was always pretty sure there were a lot of prostitutes working in hollywood i didn't know they actually started making the movies but that's just my opinion. download the official publication yourself choose a lot. which stream quality enjoy your favorites from alzheimer's if you're away from your television just doesn't mess with your mobile device you can watch artsy anytime anywhere.
